Hi everyone! Before starting this article, I'd like to really really thank my friend Roman Volchenkov aka Bizarre (check his blog http://roman-bizarre.blogspot.fr/) who just sent me a magazine in which his work appear (I'll talk about it in a next message) but also this wonderful little 20-pages book on 1:72!

This book is a really goldmine. You will learn a lot of many tricks really useful like Forced Contrast (a technique that allows you to emphasize contrasts by primering the model in black and airbrushing the subsequent colors letting the primer show through), the hairspray technique, dust, mud etc. Don't think it's too easy, for the universe of Braille Scale asks for a particular attention accordingto the author. The techniques that we know for greater scales will ask another point of view, meaning really studying your project (but I'm sure you already do this!)

The book starts with these elaborated and exhaustive technical aspects. Sven-Åke takes time to explain each step so that the reader can really appreciate and understand these techniques. Then, the author presents 5 finished models with a notice on the used techniques.
